I keep reading on here about people who have problems with snakes eating their ungathered eggs, but didn't think much about it.
Yesterday when I checked for eggs, the only one there at the time was one from my little Pencil Rock hen, and for some reason I remembered those threads. I figured my biggest snake could handle it, so I gave it a try, and it didn't take very long for that egg to disappear.
They're just cell phone pics, so they aren't very good;
